Vintage (1964), bespoke tweed jacket and waistcoat made by Haggart's of Aberfeldy. Size 40R. This is an AMAZING 22 oz. Haggart's tweed with real stag horn buttons. I love this jacket but just do not...

Well done! I saw it on FaceBook and did not realize it was yours. 'S math sin!

For Sale: 8yd., hand sewn kilt of Ancient Campbell polyviscose. 38" waist and 25" length. $150 plus shipping . I have only worn this a dozen times in light conditions. I am selling as it is a bit big...

1994 MOD kilt in government 1 (Black Watch). This is a 100% wool, 8 yard knife pleat in a nice heavy weight. Unfortunately it is a wee bit to snug on me at 33". All size info is on the label. This...

Not mispoken. It IS green in the tartan but when in Dalgleish's repro colours, the thread used is "Brown 40" we had this swapped out with "Green 140" to give it a more muted and proper green look. ...

Yes... Maxwell Hunting! I will edit my original post as I seem to have forgotten to type that part.

I recently helped a friend set up a custom order of Maxwell Hunting tartan from D.C. Dalgleish. He liked the repro colours that Dalgleish does, but he wanted the brown swapped out for more of a...

And when I argued this with a Jacobite reenacting group, I darn near got kicked off their FaceBook page. :roll:

Wish I lived closer. Congrats!

I have never attended a set kilt night up there, but my wife and I as well as some mates have been out on the town a few times in kilt.

I am very curious to hear what people have to say. From what I have seen of all the different 5-yarders being made out there, none that have seen are cut, nor do any have stabilizer and serious...

That bow came in some time in the last half of the century. The earlier Baroque bow was quite different though. I do not recall the dates as I am not a fiddle player, but I do like music and am a...

The lad's name is Timothy MacDonald. I do not really know him well other than as an acquaintance via the internet and mutual reenacting friends.

I tend to agree very much with this.



To be picky, I have to say that Gow is actually wearing breeks and tartan hose in the above image. He is shown wearing this combination elsewhere as well....

Proper 18th century trews is a great option unless you want a "kilt."

As Peter said, a proper, period correct fèileadh beag would be a PERFECT option for comfort and coolness. I highly recommend...

Well, it appears I should have done this years ago an registered as a hobbyist. Now, however, I have taken things to another level and have created a web site to show off and sell. So... it appears...

Hello,

How does one become a "registered hobbyist" and what exactly is one?

I am not getting into camouflage or not, historical or not. I do dislike the idea that pre-modern dyes were drab as this is proven to be a false statement. Certainly drab colours can be produced,...

Thanks for the comments. For what it is worth, that bonnet is plenty shaped. When wearing it with the historic kit like this, I pull it forward and not over the side. This appears to be more...
